Abstract
Various arrangements for identifying a location of a hand of a person are presented. A group of pixels may be identified in an image of a scene as including the person. A reference point may be set for the group of pixels identified as the person. The hand may be identified as using a local distance maximum from the reference point. An indication, such as coordinates, of the location of the hand may be output based on the local distance.
